Let me just start by saying... ugh. Yeah, UGH.
We had the vast majority of these TPMS problems solved for decades... that was, until the market turnover buried our name, and then the manufacturer of the sensors we were using discontinued them and sailed off into the sunset... leaving me useless tools and a bag of dead sensors. With the TPMS problem threads and facebook posts now popping up like Whack-A-Mole, seemingly with no reference to us, what we can do, *EXCEPT* to sell the product that is now unavailable.... it came time to type out this thread and solve the problem once again. You know, before I have to smash the laptop and kick a small child.
Well... looks like we may be back in business. And before anyone says "Yeah! Autel!" BEEEEEEP. Try again. I went down that path, only to figure out those idiots stripped the ID Write features out of their tools in 2023, and have been selling them EVER SINCE advertised having features THEY DON'T HAVE! I literally have a tool and sensor set sitting next to me that are about as useful as Anne Frank's Drum Kit, and they have absolutely no explanation of why they did it, why they are still advertising it, or anything else.
So, we found a different, significantly more expensive path, as per friggen usual. The good news? Should be fully operational again, sensors are an absolute top name, and are actually Z-Rated sensors. [Did you know, most of these aftermarket sensor options are not rated beyond 155mph?]
So, all you guys who actually want you cars TPMS to work, and arent so cheap that electrical tape seems like a good solution....OPTIONS:
1. [Scan tool available] Scan your car with a proper DRB-3 or capable OBD2 scan tool. Email us the sensor codes, and we can send you replacement sensors pre-programmed.
2. [Sensors GOOD and available] Disassemble your wheels, and remove the working sensors, mail them to us w/wheel location. We can clone them and return.
3. [Sensors BAD/Unavailable, and Scan Tool Unavailable] Remove TPMS Module, mail here for Programming & Return w/matching sensor set.
4. [Time Constraint + 1/2/3] We can send you a matching sensor set w/TPMS module + Core + Return Label. Install everything, return your old TPMS as a core.
Obviously every situation will be different, but this will cover the majority of situations. Also, we can send as many matching sets of sensors as desired for multiple wheel sets.
There. NOW STOP POSTING ABOUT TPMS, YOU DONT HAVE THE ABILITY TO FIX IT WITHOUT THE RIGHT TOOLS. LOL
